A SHIELD TO CRIMINALS.

It is quite clear proposition, if
we may be allowed to draw any de-
auctions from the Morrow trial,
that the Law still watches the Grim
inalswith the tenderest solicitude.
It is a proposition we'll established
that witness is excused from an
swering any question that will tend
to criminate himself. Hence, in
the trial, when the miserably pur-
CHASED tools, pals and iascaliy assoc
ciates of Morrow in his crimes,
were put on the stand they all de-
clined to answer on the grounds
that truthful answers would Grimm
ate them. Then Hall McAIlister
and Foote and other .luminaries"
of the Bar in San Francisco talked
to the Court about the "invasion of
the constitutional rights" of the
witness and the "invasion OF the c.
r." of the accused, and everybody
took extraordinary care that no
constitutional right" of any Of
these three-ply ours whose paws
were befouled with the dirty jobs of
jury fixing, should be invaded.
1t was a pitiable sight to see
Morrow twisting and twirling in his
seat, for fear that these witnesses
whom he had "fixed" should prove
as big a rascal as himself and fail
to keep their contract while they
had his money.
A witness goes before a grand
jury and tells all he knows about
the infamous work he did for Nor
row and Morrow is indicted. Then
Morrow's men bride him to keep ST.
len. on the stand, and Hall Meal
lister is hired to defend the "coI.-
stitutional rights of the miserable
unkempt cur and he declines to
testify.
Morrow bought Northey with
coin and he also bought Hall Meal
lister with coin to degrade his tai
ents in defence of a man he knew
to be a rascal. Ii there is any
more difference in the conduct of
No they and Hall McAliister and
the dissenting juror Featherstone,
We would like to have somebody
point il ont.

SENSATIONAL DEVELOP
MENT.

The trial and conviction of DIR.
Milton Bowers for the murder of his
wife in San Francisco is still fresh
in the minds of the people of the
Coast. While Bowers was resting
under the shadow of the gallows
his brother-in-law commits suicide,
ard in a farewell letter to DIR. Bow
ers confesses that he killed his
sister in order to ge.the insurance
on her life. DIR. Bowers had his
wife's life insured for 81 500. Her
brother persuaded her to transfer
the benefit of the policy to himself
without the Doctors knowledge.
His sister was taken sick and he
administered phosphorus to her un-
til death resulted. A coroner's in
quest was held and Bowers charged
with murder. Benhoyon, the guilty
brother-in-law, was the principle
witness at the trial, and on his tes-
timeny Bowers was convicted OF
murder. He bears the load of his
guilt as long as he is able, and then
poisons himself in fit of remcrse.
Before his death he wrote a num-
Der of letters and confessed his
guilt. The tact that the insurance
policy of the dead woman was made
out In faver of the accused was part
of the strong evidence against Bow
ers.
1t now appears that the transfer
of the benefits of the policy made
by Mrs. Bowers to her brother was
kept in the background by the real
murderer. One OF the letters of the
suicide charges his sister with Grim
inal intimacy with a number of we'll
known people, and from this it is
justly argued that the suicide must
have been out of his mind at the
time he made the charges.
The whole case, as now pre-
scented, is one of the most remark
able romances connected with q
murder trial ever spread before the
public.

Smith, Hawaiian Commissioner at
Washington, responded.
The principal event in literary circles
during December has been the publica-
ton of new volume OF poems by Lord
Tennyson-" Locksley Hall Sixty Years
After" The only thing that is abso
lutely new in the volume is the poem
that gives it its title. ''The Fleet" and
the ode on the "Opening of the Indian
and Colonial Exhibition by the Queen"
have both appeared before. '!The
Promise of May" which occupies quite
three-fourths of the new volume, is
drama which was played without any
success about four years ago at one OF
the London theaters. The criticism OF
the new poem has been very scathing
from all quarters. Many critics object
to its evident sneer at Radicalism, while
those who ignore its political tendency
remark that it is not on kindred works
that TennysOn has founded his great
name.
The poem is kind of epilogue to
''Locksley Hall" Tennyson has often
told us we are all going to the dogs. The
world seems to him an agglomeration Of
Zolaism, cowardice, radicalism and ire
ligion.
Ay if dynamite and revolver leave you courage
to be wise:
When was age crammed with menace? mad
ness? written, spoken lies?
Envy wears the mask of love, and laughing
sober fact to scorn,
Cries to weakest rs to strongest eye equals,
equal born"
Equal born? o yes if yonder hill be level with
the fat.
Charm US, Orator, till the lion looks no larger
than the cat,
language loom
Larger than the lion-Demos end in working its
doom.
Russia bursts our Indian barrier. Shall we fight
her? Shall we yield?
Pause before you sound the trumpet hear the
voices from the field,
Those three hundred millions under one I'M
periaI sceptre now.
Shall we hold them? Shall we lose them? Take
the suffrage of the plough.
The evident allusion in the above to
Mr. Gladstone and the political question
of the hour, called forth criticisms from
the press opposed to Tennyson's views
that have seldom been made on any
great poem.

The Mission to Samoa. sss

HIS Majesty the King has received an
official letter from His Majesty Malietoa,
King of Samoa, of which the following
is the official translation:
BY the grace of Almighty God, Malietoa,
from the Eight Families, and King of
Samoa.
To His Majesty Kalakaua, King Of the
Hawaiian Islands:
BELOVED BROTHER:
How happy and delighted l was when
Your welcome letter of the 23d December
last reached me, and l sincerely thank
God that You are in the enjoyment of good
health with the Members of Your, Royal
Family.
And now with great pleasure and delight
l welcome Your Majesty's PlenipOtentiary
in the person of Mr.. John Edward Bush,
Knight Grand Cross of Your Royal Order
of the Crown of Hawaii, etc, to these My
Islands, for the purpose of meeting to-
gether with US. l am much pleased, and
especially because it seems to me now
from the way You have remembered me,
that Your love for US is unchanged. By
traditions we have learned the truth that
Your people are of one blood with us.
But this is not all. I was pleased to find
in meeting Mr. Bush that he, Mr.. Bush, is
perfect, kind and good gentleman, and
to know his truth and loyalty to Your
Majesty.
Your Majesty be pleased and allow me
to tell You little news in regard to the
troubles at these my Islands, and within
my Kingdom.
The present rebellion was encouraged by
some foreigners, who want to sell arms and
ammunition of war. This is the com
mencement from which the sO-called
"Tumua" have arisen.
And it was by the advice of the foreign
Consuls which l follow, or otherwise this
rebellion would have been quenched ere
this. The Consuls advise me to be patient
and strong and leave the rebellion to
them, and the rebellion is still in existence
to-day.
And it is not my wish to make any war,
or to see any among these my Islands, as
there are only few people in it.
But earnestly pray God that the time
will soon come Through His blessing)
when Samoa will unite under one Govern
ment again.
L pray for health and prosperity to Your
Majesty, with all the blessings of God on
Your Government.
Done at the Residence of Malietoa at
Apia, this 18th day of January, A D. 1887.
MALIETOA,
King of Samoa.

THE SAMOAN MISSION.

Elsewhere we publish the text of an
autograph letter from Malietoa, King of
Samoa, to his Majesty the King. On
the 9TH of January Minister Bush had
audience with the Samoan King, at
which he presented his credentials and
an autograph letter from King Kalakaua
In the course of his address he said
His Majesty desires me to convey to you
an expression of the deep interest he feels
III the welfare of yourself and the people of
Samoa, recognizing in them people of a
kindred race closely allied to the Hawaii
ans by blood, by language and by historical
traditions, and to give you every assurance
Of his friendship and his desire to see the
Samoan Kingdom progressive and happy
and assured of its independence and
peaceful prosperity. His Majesty also de
5ires me to say that it is his earnest wish
o draw closer the bonds of friendship and
sympathy which already unite the people
f Hawaii and Samoa, and to preserve and
.dvance the interests and well-being of
9th countries.
His Majesty, whose sympathies are with
on as brother Sovereign of a kindred
zee, has viewed with solicitude the internal
faculties that have encOmpassed the
government of Samoa and the possibility
Of foreign Intervention affecting its indie
randence; and desires me to express his
-vmpathy and hope that you may succeed
.u maintaining peaceful stability and per-
ct autonomy, and should you desire the
endly advice and encouragement of His

many but what a lady may enter with
propriety, lie says, and they are to be
seen in all cafes Consul Tanner, who
has given great attention to this subject,
and is quite sure OF his figures, accounts
for the difference in the results of drink
ing in Germany and in America by the
fact that in Europe the science of drink
ing is understood. cit is simple when
compared with the blind, irrational and
suicidal manner of drinking in the
United States. This science consists
simply in the hardness of drinking. All
drinks are taken sip by sip, half or
three-quarter5 Of an hour being con-
sumed for glass OF beer" As we have
mad an apostle of total abstinence among
us it may not be amiss reconsider this OF
fetal criticism of German drinking
habits. The ''blue ribbon" movement
would stand no show east of the Rhine,
or west of it for that matter. Men have
leisure to drink scientifically in Europe,
but that is out of the question in Ameri-
ca and many other places where life is a
struggle at high pressure. Under the last
named condition total abstinence may
flourish, but assuredly not where men
can spend thirty to forty-fve minutes
consuming glass of beer, "by which
manner of drinking" we are told by
Consul Tanner, 1.-THE blood is aroused to
a greater activity in so gradual manner
that there is no violent arrangement of
the animal economy"

THE SCIENCE OF DRINKING. "

-as Scientific American" some time
ago lblished a remarkable article on
.s-na Science of Drinking" based upon
d.. report of United States Consul Tan
.er e5 Chemintz, Germany. The Con
...f ri yes the total beer production of the
Germ an Empire for 1885 at one billion
.re hundred million gallons, and OF
wines and other alcoholic liquors at nine
r,.rr.ired million gallons This the Con-
sul records as the actual consumption OF
the Germanic Empire for the year in
question, as the imports equaized ex-
Dorts. Estimating the population OF
Germany at fifty millions, it gives forty
Gallons a year per capita, statistics aver
aoino the United States consumption of
beer at ten gallons per capita. In other
words the beer consumed annually in
Germany, including Alsace and LOr-
raine, would form lake more than
mile SQUARE and six and half feet deep.
Rut the Germans are moral, sober, in
dustrious people. Consul Tanner says
that beer is quite as much if not more
extensively used than water. Beer
must be furnished to servants Tor their
repasts. He had seen children hardly
weaned given beer without any apparent
bad effects. In short, since his arrival
in Germany he had not seen the first
glass of water drunk. Yet one never
sees a drunken man in cafe, and rarely
ever on the street. This he attributes to
the purifying influence of women"
